Voip-Pal/Digifonica's Lawful Intercept Patent Application has successfully completed the PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) International Phase. The Patent Application now enters into the National Phase and is expected to be examined by EU member countries in addition to the United States and Canada. The status of Voip-Pal/Digifonica's Lawful Intercept application is under active prosecution processing and currently Patent Pending.

Voip-Pal/Digifonica's Lawful Intercept Patent Application discloses the most efficient way of intercepting voice over the Internet. This revolutionary technology was developed to address the national and international demands by governments to enable law agencies the ability to perform scheduled and live intercepts (wire-taps) on Digital Voice telephone conversations. This technology has been trialed at several relevant agencies in the UK, and complies with the ETSI (European telecommunications Standards Institute) and UK NHIS (National Handover Interface Standard) standards.

Compliance with the ETSI and NHIS standards ensures that the Lawful Intercept technology can be adopted by all European Union member countries who have recently announced a desire to terminate network providers who do not offer Lawful Intercept solutions (this would include service providers such as Skype). India has also made it clear its desire to "kick out" service providers who cannot offer some kind of Lawful Intercept solution.

"Federal law enforcement agencies have expressed frustration in trying to track and record criminal and terrorist internet conversations," explains Dennis Chang, President of Voip-Pal. "Our Lawful Intercept technology would allow government agencies to 'silently record' VOIP communications. CALEA (Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act) requires telecommunications carriers and makers of communications equipment to enable their equipment so it can be used for surveillance purposes by federal law enforcement agencies."
